Environment Crissis and Evolution

Has anyone actually realise that with each and every single year that passes by the summers get hotter and the winters get colder? There are more and more natural disasters that matches previously recorded levels or even exceed them. I was just readin the sunday paper when i came across an article (although i didn't read the whole thing) which shows that there is a 27% increase of carbon dioxide in our atmosphere. So what does this all mean? Well apparently carbon dioxide is the gas that is responsible for global warming, so i guess thats why it keeps getting hotter la each year. Coming to think of it when i went to the US some years ago i managed to find some time to visit the planetarium, i can't exactly remember the name but its in New York la (can't be bothered to find out now). Anyway there i saw some sort of 'pictures' if you will that shows the levels of the ozone layer and the respective years. I guess you know where i'm heading with this la right, well its really obvious really...as the years go by our planets ozone gets thinner and thinner, especially in metropolitan areas or highly populated areas. Its a known fact that its getting thinner and i'm sure you don't need me to tell you that, but the way i see it nothing is ever gonna change and i believe that it will continue to get thinner and hotter.

Which brings me to the point of the movie (or book if you prefer) called 'Time Machine' where in a distant future all mankind will be living underground, well not all la but alot la. The evolution of man has now practically stopped, well physically la anyway we are however still evolving but more on the brainy side (or so i was told la). Which means that probably in a distant future man would have like really small bodies and really big heads, like ET or how aliens are commonly depicted in the movies or comics or whatever or where ever you saw them. Why we have stopped evolving physically leh is because we have grown comfortable with our lives, think about it there are so many creations of man that assists everybodies daily lives. So i'm just wondering that if one day when all of the earths ozone has finally been depleted (so to speak), and man were force to live underground how would we then evolve? Or will we just perish for being exposed to the suns radiation? Or will we also be able to evolve to withstand those radiation (highly unlikely)? Or will man find a way to recreate the ozone? Well whatever the future will be, at times like this i find the saying of 'Agent Smith' (From the matrix) to be so true...then man are like a cancer, a disease!!! I just hope that i won't be around when the ozone decides to collapse, hahaha.
